ObjectiveThe present study aimed to determine whether or not dual paroxysm proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) agonist,WY14643,improved the dysfunctioned vascular endothelium in hypertension by reducing endothelium-derived contracting factors ( EDCFs ),and to explore the molecular mechanism it was involved in.MethodsIsometric tension in isolated thoracic aortic rings of spontaneously hypertensive rats was recorded.Endothelium-dependent contractions evoked by acetylcholine in the presence of L NAME were reduced by fenofibrate.Cyclooxygenase 1 ( COX1 ) activities were determined by analyzing the peroxidase activity of cyclooxygenase colorimetrically by using ELISA kit.ResultsCompared to the control group,WY14643 significantly decreased the vasoconstriction in aorta of the SHR rats(P=0.014).PPARα antagonist MK866 enhanced the vascular contractility of SHR rats that were incubated with 10.0μmol/L WY14643( P=0.021 ).PPARΥ antagonist GW9662 did not significantly affect the vascular contractility of SHR rats that were incubated with 10.0 μmol/L WY14643( P=0.061 ).The levels of serum PGFlα(P=0.012),2α( P =0.019) and TXB2(P=0.023) in SHR rats incubated with 10.0 μmol/L WY14643 were significantly lower than the control group,respectively.Under the condition of the existence of vascular endothelium,the expression of COX-1 in SHR rats incubated with WY14643 was significantly lower than that in SHR rats incubated without WY14643 (P=0.017).ConclusionsThose data showed that WY14643 reduced the release of EDCFs,it suggests that WY14643 protects against vascular diseases through the PPAR activators in spontaneous hypertension.

Objective To investigate the changes of serum endotoxin and its receptor CD 14 gene expression in multiple organs in models of acute forebrain ischemia complicated with multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS), and the pathogenesis of cerebrogenic multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (CMODS). Methods 54 Wistar rats were randomly divided into normal control group ( n=6), sham-operative group ( n=8) and forebrain ischemic group ( n=40). The rats in forebrain ischemic group were randomly divided into 5 subgroups: 12, 24, 36, 48, and 72 h (8 rats in each group). The contents of endotoxin in plasma were determined after models of acute forebrain infarction established. The area density and optical density of positive staining expressing CD 14mRNA in lung, liver, intestine and kidney were analyzed for the relative content of CD 14mRNA using in situ hybridization and CMIA medical image analysis system.Results Plasma endotoxin level was markedly high at 12 hours after acute forebrain ischemia, peaked at 24 hours and somewhat decreased at 72 hours. The CD 14mRNA expression in lung, liver, intestine, and kidney tissues increased after brain ischemia, reached the peak at 24~36 h, and decreased after 48 hours. The highest change of CD 14mRNA expression was found in lung ( P

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the clinical application value of cone-beam CT (CBCT) online correcting technology in volume modulated radiation therapy (VMRT) for nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). METHOD: Fifty NPC patients applying head neck and shoulder thermoplastic body membrane fixing device were eligible for treatment VMRT, these patients would accept a couple of CBCT scanning by on board imager (OBI) in a fixed time each week after initial setup and after online correcting during the first three week for radiotherapy, CBCT images and DRR images constructed by CT simulation were carried out registration,which could calculate the setup errors of initial setup and after online correcting. RESULT: Fifty patients were accepted 150 scanning after initial setup and 150 scanning after online correcting respectively, the errors after initial setup were (-1.24 ± 1.25)mm in X direction, (1.19 ± 1.85)mm in Y direction, (1.49 ± 1.70) mm in Z direction. The setup errors after online correcting were (-0.13 ± 0.29)mm in X direction, (0.10 ± 0.47)mm in Y direction, (0.17 ± 0.36)mm in Z direction. The setup errors after online correcting were significantly lower than the errors after initial setup in X direction (P < 0.05), Y direction (P < 0.05), Z direction(P < 0.05). The M(PTV) value after online correcting were 0.46 mm, 0.53 mm and 0.59 mm in X, Y and Z directions respectively. CONCLUSION The use of CBCT online correcting technology can significantly reduce the setup errors of VMRT for NPC and improve the treatment effect.
